WHAT A DISSAPPOINTMENT. WITH THE ABILITY OF SPECIAL FX THEY COULD HAVE DONE SO MUCH MORE BUT THE CAST WAS TERRIBLE AND THE FILMING WAS WORSE. PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS MOVIE. THEY DIDN'T STAY TRUE TO THE HISTORY OF THE HULK AND I WILL NEVER WATCH ANOTHER HULK MOVIE AFTER THIS CAUSE IT'S CAN'T GET MUCH WORSE THAN THIS. ERIC BANA WAS NOT GOOD IN THIS AND TO USE OLD WASHED UP NICK NOLTE WAS EVEN A WORSE IDEA.The Not so Incredible Huk - Filmgal
The Hulk should have been a better film with it's director and cast, but instead, it falls short of what could have been a great action hero film.
Scientist Bruce Banner (Bana) lives a quiet life in a lab with his ex-girlfriend Betty (Connolly)while his troubled past remains repressed in the form of nightmare flashbacks. When there is an accident in the lab, Bruce saves his co-worker and ends up absorbing a large dose of gamma radiation, triggering his advanced genetics to transform into the Hulk. It is up to Betty to try to save both the Hulk and Bruce.
The film is decent until the Hulk figure is introduced. From there, it all goes downhill with the giant green CGI monster. What started as a dark, mystery action film, has become a ridiculous and disappointing comic book. The film is also shot in comic strip form with multiple images on screen at once which grows tiresome. The best part of the film is the interaction between the human characters.
Rent it if you're a fan of comic book adaptations or the cast as it does have it's redeeming qualities. If you're looking for a god comic turned film, you'd be happier with the Batman franchise.One underappreciated superhero flick - caperaway
This superhero film didn’t generate the box office numbers like X-Men and Spider-man and for that reason I’d say this is one underappreciated superhero flick. For all its special effects, this movie is really about Bruce Banner, who is played excellently by Eric Bana. When he’s agitated, Bruce Banner turns into a big green monster. That’s special effects. But before he turns and after he returns to human form, it’s all on Bana’s shoulders. He brings needed emotional weight to this character driven superhero flick. This is not the overblown sappy love of Spider-man. This movie does not feature a cornball villain like Green Goblin. The Hulk is played very straight to great effect. I’d also like you to keep an eye on what the filmmakers have done with this film visually. It looks like comic book panels and they use this visual style to help tell the story. I also like the fact this superhero movie has a very mature feel. I felt the same way when I watched X-Men 2.
